[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't have any kid in my circle who didn't attend or finish college but my carpenter, electrician and plumber seems to do well enough for themselves. I guess if you don't want to go to college, few years of training for a high demand skill can be an option. [/quote] This 100% If your kid is not interested in college/more classes and likes to work with things, then picking from electrician, HVAC, plumbing, construction is a viable path. They can do extremely well for themselves. Just realize that after 20 years of doing this, you want to be owning your own company and not working physical labor 10 hours a day...your body will not like that. Same for hairdresser, healthcare techs (only require a 2 year degree for many), pick something you are interested in and pursue it. We need people doing all of those things and the pay is good [/quote]
